Although in the annealed and partially annealed conditions some conductor wires of the present invention show a slight loss in electrical conductivity as compared with a conductor wire of a known aluminium alloy containing a similar quantity of iron, smaller quantities of silicon and only trace quantities of copper, the improvement in tensile strength for a given elongation renders our improved conductor wires especially suitable for use in telephone cables and in other cables where a high tensile strength is desirable and a high electrical conductivity is not of primary importance.
In some instances conductor wires of the present invention in the drawn condition, especially those of an aluminium alloy in which the iron content lies in the range 0.45 to 0.6 weight percent, the silicon content lies in the range 0.225 to 0.3 weight percent and the copper content lies in the range 0.2 to 0.5 weight percent, though having a slightly lower electrical conductivity than a conductor wire of a known aluminium alloy containing a similar quantity of iron but a smaller quantity of silicon and a trace quantity of copper and than a conductor wire of an aluminium alloy containing a similar quantity of iron and a larger quantity of silicon than is conventionally employed, have a tensile strength that is at least 50% greater than that of the drawn conductor wires of the known alloys. These drawn conductor wires of the present invention are especially suitable for use in overhead electric conductors where tensile strength is a primary consideration.
Other cables for which our improved conductor wires are suitable include cables of the kind generally known as wiring cables and used, for example, for the wiring of buildings, vehicles, aircraft, switchboards, equipment and machinery and comprising one or more conductor wires covered with insulating and/or sheathing material. Where our improved conductor wire is to be used in a wiring cable the conductor wire may have an outer cladding of copper or a copper-based alloy bonded to it, the cladding constituting the minor proportion of the cross-sectional area of the conductor wire. The provision of a copper cladding ensures that the conductor wire can be satisfactorily jointed or terminated by those methods normally employed for copper conductors.

The invention also includes an electric cable or electric insulated wire comprising at least one conductor wire of the present invention, provided with at least one covering layer of insulating material, and the invention further includes an electric cable comprising two or more insulated conductors, at least one comprising at least one conductor wire of the present invention, provided with at least one covering layer of insulating material and, enclosing the insulated conductors, an outer protective sheath.

The condustors may be insulated with solid or cellular plastics material and the interstices between the insulated conductors and between them and a surrounding waterproof sheath from end to end of the cable length may be filled with a water-impermeable medium of a grease-like nature.
The invention still further includes an overhead electric conductor comprising a plurality of wires stranded together, at least some of which wires are conductor wires of the present invention.
The invention will be further illustrated by a description, by way of example, of a telecommunication cable and of an overhead electric conductor each incorporating conductor wires of the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional end view of the telecommunication cable, and
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional end view of the overhead electric conductor.
The telecommunication cable comprises 100 pairs of insulated conductors each consisting of a partially annealed aluminium alloy wire 1 of nominal diameter 0.50 mm and an insulating covering 2 of extruded cellular polyethylene of radial thickness 0.14 mm. The aluminium alloy of each wire consists of 98.7 weight percent aluminium; 0.56 weight percent iron; 0.29 weight percent silicon; 0.39 weight percent copper; and trace quantities of conventional impurities. The wire has an electrical conductivity of 60.2 IACS, an 0.1% proof stress of 93 MN/m2, a tensile strength of 145 MN/m2 and elongation on 250 mm of 11.5%. The assembly of insulated conductors is surrounded by a longitudinally applied, transversely folded paper tape 4, a longitudinally applied, transversely folded aluminium tape 5 and an extruded polythene sheath 6. The interstices between the insulated conductors and between the insulated conductors and the paper tape 4 are filled with a water-impermeable medium 3 comprising highly refined petroleum jelly.
The overhead electric conductor has an overall diameter of 42.5 mm and comprises a stranded core 11 of seven steel wires, each of diameter 4.72 mm, which is surrounded by three stranded layers 12, 13 and 14 of round drawn aluminium alloy wires 15 of diameter 4.72 mm, the direction of lay of the wires of each layer being opposite to that of the wires in the or each adjacent layer.
